While it considers a new regulation allowing individuals with non-discretionary state contracts to serve in public office, the state Ethics Commission has extended its deadline for state Sen. Dan Wolf either to step down from his political post or from his ownership position with Cape Air, the company he founded.

Although he will continue to serve in the Senate, Wolf has suspended his gubernatorial campaign.

“I thank the Commissioners for their consideration,” he said in a press statement, “and hope for a positive resolution that brings the spirit and letter of the law into harmony.”
